[Talk-GB] Licensing compatibility

[Simon Poole]

AFAIK we've not had any data licensed on ODC-BY 1.0 imported, at least
not on a larger scale.

The ODC-BY licence was supposed to be compatible with distribution on
ODBL terms just as CC BY should be with CC BY-SA (I would however argue
that both do not actually meet that goal), so most terms are similar to
the ODBL. I do believe that we would at least need a statement that
central attribution as we provide it is OK with the data source as the
ODC-BY terms do not seem to cater for this.
